Can't import .lhs script in Haskell












1














I have two files, S5.hs and S6.lhs, in the same folder, and I want to import the S6.lhs script in S5.hs, but when i type import S6, i get:



Could not find module `S6'
Use -v to see a list of the files searched for.
|
1 | import S6
| ^^^^^^^^^^
Failed, no modules loaded.


When I lauch it from the folder, I get following message(the first line of the S6 file is import Data.Array):



    File name does not match module name:
Saw: `Main'
Expected: `S6'
|
1 | import Data.List
| ^


Why is this happening?

  • Do you launch ghc from the same directory? Could you show us exactly how you are launching the compilation?

    Are you sure you don't have a file named S6.* with module Main where ...?

Looks like you need to specify at the top of the S6.lhs file that you want this file to be treated as the S6 module, as opposed to the default module name of Main. You would do that with module S6 where or module S6 (export, list) where.
